  • User interface device and its display method
    Patent number: 7318202
    Abstract: While a design manipulation window 62 is open on the screen, in response to a user's selection of a print manipulation option bar 244b, the design manipulation window 62 is slid to change over the display to a print manipulation window 64. A print preview display field 241 included in the design manipulation window 62 remains on the display to form part of the print manipulation window 64, while a design menu display field 242 is made to disappear from the screen and a print menu display field 243 appears on the screen. The changeover of the manipulation window includes switch of the display of the menu display field 242 or 243. The user can thus readily recognize a changeover of manipulation mode on the screen. The remaining display of the print preview display field 241 effectively enhances the user's working efficiency.
